Crushed Charles Bronson made a devastating call to his elderly mother after his freedom bid was denied, telling her: "I'm not coming out, mum."
The notorious lag - who has held 11 hostages in nine different sieges during his 48 years in prison - had begged the parole board to set him free, claiming he was a "retired prison activist".
But yesterday he lost his EIGHTH bid to be released and was told he still posed a danger to the public.
